Yesterday, the Television Academy released the submission ballets for the 2019 Emmy Awards. This means we got to see what shows, actors, and crew members networks had put forward for Emmy consideration, which is different from what actually gets on the final ballot. We won’t see that until the Emmy nominations are announced on July 16.
